Moe’s Home Collection, the North American retailer & wholesaler best known for its modern & contemporary furniture, lifestyle products & home décor, has announced Joey Li as their Vice President of Supply Chain.
This news couldn’t come at a more perfect time as Li plans to oversee the entirety of MHC’s Ocean Logistics, navigating the company through these historical high tides of shipment disruptions brought on by the global pandemic.
“It’s a hard situation & the current conditions are not
expected to change within the first quarter of 2021, although myself & my team remain hopeful as we continue to adapt to these significant changes & project for further disruptions. We constantly shift as every day comes with different news. There are many factors at play here as to why freight prices remain extremely elevated, costing thousands more in premiums & surcharges, like delays, congestion, man & equipment shortages, etc. But, as the demand we saw in Q3 & Q4 2020 eases out, the balance between import & export will be restored come Q2 2021.” – Joey Li, VP of Supply Chain
Adapting to these new standards will remain a cross-industry challenge. Still, Moe’s Home Collection is confident that the reality of volatility is being accommodated as best it can with their new VP at the helm. Pivoting his role from Warehouse, Operations & Director of Logistics & Customer Experience, Li will now focus his attention to the upper stream of the supply chain from origins -China, Vietnam & India- straight to point of consumption. He will be delegating more of his time towards overseeing their Asia office, Ocean Logistics & the company’s Quality Control Teams.
“Joey has now been with Moe’s for 3.5 years & during this tenure has led our warehouse & operational departments during a time of significant growth. He has consistently taken on additional responsibilities since his start & we are greatly looking forward to continuously improving our areas of business with Joey’s leadership.” – Moe Jr. Samieian, Co-CEO
With his transformational leadership experience & proven track record of driving quality improvements alongside his high-performance team, Li will administer the company’s supply chain strategy, objectives, improve supply chain security & continue to deliver sustainable results. With his great depth & industry experience in operations management, his focus for 2021 will be on supply chain quality, driving for more excellence in reliability & quality from suppliers & to build flexible systems that improve & help his departments stay on track.
As the industry continues to manage through these major organizational impacts, Moe’s Home is well on its way to establishing the overall direction & strategic initiatives for a significant function of their business; that is, delivering best-in class products alongside their intense customer focus.
